It brings professionals from innovative startups, established global brands, public and private organisations together with CIID’s remarkable network of partners, faculty, alumni and students.
Our global network of forward-thinking professionals - across practices and markets - is known for its creativity and impact, and for groundbreaking projects that push boundaries and tackle real-world challenges.

- Key contributions by leading design practitioners
- Relaxed, dynamic networking opportunities: learn and share with the CIID community over lunch, aperitivo and dinner in the 11th century Astino Monastery.
